Bulgarian club Arda Kardzhali have apologised for holding a minute's silence for a former player who is still alive.
Petko Ganchev was mourned ahead of Sunday’s 1-1 league draw with Levski Sofia, with both teams lining up on the centre circle and bowing their heads.
However, the club then announced it had been misinformed in a Facebook post shared before the top-flight match finished.
"The management of PFC Arda would like to express a huge apology to the former Arda player Petko Ganchev and his relatives after the club received wrong information about his death," read the statement.
"We wish Petko Ganchev many more years of good health and to enjoy the success of Arda."
